Booster Cushion Theatre Company presents :
Big Goldilocks
Everything is in disguise and the story goes into the skies… with this very comical retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Big Goldilocks wanders off into the forest but soon gets lost, getting hungry, grumpy and tired. The forest animals decide to escape before she gets grumpier, on an Animal Rescue Centre which flies high throughout the skies! Goldilocks arrives at the Three Bears house for a big bowl of cereal but soon it’s up to the audience to help scare her away… The story is retold through a massive 6ft tall book complete with pop ups and props – great fun!
10.30am
